Time is running out to apply for the next round of The World’s Largest Dinosaur Legacy Grant Funds.
Applications for grants of up to $3,000 are available to community not for profit groups registered under the Societies Act or other formal organized groups. They limit the criteria to exclude service clubs and church groups.
The fund is designed to reinvest revenues generated by the World’s Largest Dinosaur and gift shop back in to the community “to enhance and enrich community economic development initiatives in the Drumheller region.”
The funding is available for capital projects that benefit the community. The grant is not available to supplement operating revenue. It may be used as a matching grant to renovate, retrofit, enhance or repair capital construction projects.
The deadline to apply for the fund is Monday, September 1, 2014. Funds are awarded based on project worthiness and not all proposals will be selected for funding. If selected, the recipient must expend all funding and interest accrued within a year of the stated project start date.
Applications are available at the Drumheller and District Chamber of Commerce office or by going to www.drumhellerchamber.com
